It was very strange; she had clearly never heard or used this word before.
But when I shout it out, I feel a sweet feeling in my heart.
"Yes, so shouldn't I change what I call my girlfriend?" Ji Minxiu leaned forward slightly and asked in a tender voice with lingering eyes.
Yun Zhourong subconsciously shrank her neck before whispering, "Then... what should I call you?"
“Okay, call me by my name, Minxiu,” Ji Minxiu said.
"Ah...the name...is it too..."
In the Dasheng Dynasty, outsiders are addressed by their courtesy names; only very close relatives can use their given names. She had originally wondered if calling someone by their given name would be too intimate.
However, considering that they are now in a relationship, it seems appropriate for them to be a little more intimate.
So she took a deep breath and slowly uttered, "Min...Min-soo..."
The sound was so faint it was barely audible.
Furthermore, after she finished speaking, Yun Zhourong's face turned completely red, so hot that she involuntarily clenched her hands tightly.
Seeing her like this, Ji Minxiu decided to tease her and deliberately leaned closer, saying, "Um, what did you say? I didn't hear you clearly. Say it again."
"Huh?" Yun Zhourong was completely stunned.
She looked a little dazed, her red lips slightly parted, resembling a ripe cherry, incredibly alluring.
This made Ji Minxiu's eyes darken, and then he lowered his head and slowly kissed her.
Their hot breaths mingled, and the soft touch on her lips made Yun Zhourong's mind go blank for a moment. Her eyes widened, and she froze on the spot.
"Close your eyes..."
Suddenly, a light, deep male voice reached his ears.
Yun Zhourong's thoughts had just returned to normal when she subconsciously closed her eyes quickly.
Seeing this reaction, Ji Minxiu couldn't help but chuckle, reaching out to cup Yun Zhourong's face and slowly deepening the kiss.
The lingering kiss plunged Yun Zhourong's thoughts into a state of confusion once again, as if she were in a fog, completely led by Ji Minxiu.
This feeling was unfamiliar, yet so wonderfully captivating.
"Silly girl, breathe..."
By the time Yun Zhourong came to her senses, she was lying in Ji Minxiu's arms, and all she could hear was his smiling voice.
Yun Zhourong took a deep breath and slowly came back to her senses.
Then, she reached out and covered her face.
Good heavens, did the Snow Demon just kiss her?
This is so embarrassing!
Ji Minxiu was truly charmed by her appearance. He pulled her hand down, looked directly at her, and said, "Ruanruan needs to adapt as soon as possible. After all, kissing is a very normal thing between couples."
"Oh, stop talking now..."
Yun Zhourong was still incredibly shy. She turned around, hugged Ji Minxiu's waist, and buried her face in his chest.
"Hahaha…"
Ji Minxiu couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Although Yun Zhourong was still shy, she felt sweet and tender inside, and also felt especially at ease. She wanted to hold Ji Minxiu like this forever and never let go.
It took less than half an hour to fly the helicopter, but it took two whole days to get back.
They first had over a hundred people wait outside Yazhou Ridge, agreeing to use fireworks as a signal, and then the two of them held hands and returned to the inn.
Since confessing their feelings, their relationship has quickly heated up. The past two days have felt like being in a blissful honeymoon, and they are extremely happy.
Holding hands is so frequent now that it's become second nature.
Of course, once she reached Yun Hongcheng, Yun Zhourong obediently withdrew her hand.
Ji Minxiu didn't say much, but instead briefly explained the matter of hiring soldiers to the three of them, "The next thing to do is to find the black workshop's stronghold."
"That's easy, just ask the mute girl," Song Shuyi said casually.
Yun Zhourong shook her head. "I think that since the mute girl has been in our hands for so many days, the other side must have a backup plan. They've probably already moved her."
"That's right. The fact that they left the mute girl with us but restricted our freedom of movement may have given them enough time to deal with the situation."
Yun Hongcheng nodded in agreement, "Making agarwood doesn't require any complicated tools; the important thing is the people. I guess the original place has probably been abandoned by now."
"Mmm..."
Upon hearing this, the mute girl immediately cried out in anxiety and fear.
Seeing this, everyone knew that she was afraid of being taken back, which would likely result in a rather cruel punishment.
So he quickly reassured her, "Don't worry, we promised to help you to the end. We said we'd take you with us, and we definitely will!"
"Mmm..."
Upon hearing this, the mute girl calmed down slightly, but her face was still full of fear.
Yun Zhourong, holding the mute girl, looked at Ji Minxiu and said, "Min... Snow Demon, such a large-scale relocation of people should have left clues. Shall we go and investigate together?"
These days, Ji Minxiu has been forcing Yun Zhourong to call him by his name so that she can do it naturally, and now she almost let it slip.
“Okay.” Ji Minxiu’s girlfriend’s request was reasonable, so he had no reason to object.
Yun Hongcheng, on the other hand, said with some concern, "Ruan Ruan is, after all, a young lady. It's not good for her to always go into danger. Why don't I go with Lady Snow Demon?"
"Father, you're too conspicuous for me. It's better if I go with Lady Snow Demon," Yun Zhourong quickly said.
"Indeed, then please take good care of Ruan Ruan, Snow Demon." Yun Hongcheng finally relented.
Afterwards, to everyone's astonishment, Ji Minxiu gave himself and Yun Zhourong a completely different makeup look than before, and then left the inn smoothly once again.
The mute girl drew a map showing the address of the illegal workshop, and the two searched for a while, only to find that the road was becoming increasingly remote.
“Minxiu, it seems that the illegal workshop is located in the fragrant forest.”
The two stopped halfway up the mountain. Yun Zhourong frowned and said, "If that workshop really has moved, I think that given the other party's ruthless nature, there will most likely be an ambush."
"That's right, our Ruanruan is getting smarter and smarter."
Ji Minxiu patted her head approvingly, then pulled her to squat down in the grass nearby, and took out the drone.
"What is this?" Yun Zhourong asked curiously as she stepped forward.
"This is called a drone. By controlling it, you can go to various places to investigate the situation." After Ji Minxiu finished speaking, he controlled the drone to rise into the sky and fly forward.
Soon, the drone's field of view appeared on the display screen in my hand.
"Wow, it's here! It really is here!"
Upon seeing the footage captured by the drone, Yun Zhourong excitedly grabbed Ji Minxiu's sleeve, pressed her shoulder against his, and looked closely. "This... if this were used in the front-line battles, wouldn't it be just like an eagle, usable for reconnaissance?"
"Yes, Ruanruan is smart; she saw the key point right away." Ji Minxiu praised her with a smile before continuing to control the drone to fly forward.
Soon, the scene showed many thugs hiding in the fragrant grove, each carrying a knife.
"There are people, there really are people!" Yun Zhourong said with lingering fear. "Luckily we didn't go straight there, otherwise we might have been in danger."
